The 2021 Mauritson Rockpile Ridge Zinfandel is a complex and intense wine that showcases the unique terroir of the Rockpile appellation. The wine carries signature aromas of candied Santa Rosa plum, crushed violet candy, milk chocolate shavings, espresso grounds, spice, and graphite. On the palate, the wine has a fine-grained, velvety texture that lingers with flavors of ripe red fruits and sweet earth. The wine is energetic and will benefit from 1-2 years of bottle age, with the potential to be enjoyed over the next 10-12 years. The 2021 vintage is defined by its detailed texture, which sets it apart from previous years. The wine is made from 95% Zinfandel and 5% Petite Sirah, with a production of 1,057 cases.
